Smile migraines

I've read all the info regarding triggers and I haven't noticed anything in common on the days these have occured. I have been having some of the pain as well even in the absence of the headache and my scalp is experiencing hyersensitivity to no end. I'm scheduled this week for a lip biopsy for Sjogrens but does anyone know if these headaches can accompany that or PN? I've already seen my neuro for this and he is stumped. I'm feeling pretty alone in all of this and this seems to be a constant state for me for over a month now and it doesn't seem to be going away. I've had an MRI of the head in the beginning of 2008 and I've tried topamax before on two occasions for another nerve pain condition I have, but I have alot of reasons for not taking it aside from side effects. I'm feeling pretty beat up by this. If anyone has any info to share, i'd be really grateful.
i have suffered from migraines all my life. they usally are only on one side. a headache alone can be a trigger for the next one. they are called rebound headaches. i take depakote good luck
